Anyway Sengkang still has space for 2 more services if they make 86 and 87 loop there.

I think either 80/87 and 156 will move to compassvale interchange cos 80 & 87 has similar routes till hougang central and there is 159/43/43M to complement 156 along buangkok green and yck rd..... ur views??

S3 got 3 AM shift from 0700-0720 will off service to PSR Dr 1 Blk 738 towards Tampines to cover buses that stuck with the famous Punggol Jams..

Hi mr carbikebus, yes good to hear this. Cheers. Thanks.

dupdup77 SG

Hi mr rajboi37, my views are more extreme. The current services will remain there. They will introduce new services at the expanded interchange. Reason is they are connected by a bridge. Distance is about 50 metres only. No need for massive shifting of existing services. This is unlike tampines int which is 250-300 metres away from its expanded interchange. Cheers. Thanks.

SBS 9256 X SG

I think anything can be possible... Maybe one or two current service may shift to the new extension. But unsure of which service only...

Compassvale Interchange will open this year. Trust me.

Not really because svc 87 is the only bus that connects blks at Compassvale Rd towards Sengkang East Ave with Sengkang MRT while svc 80 connects the blks at Compassvale Dr (alt: 86) and Punggol Road (alt: 163).

If you notice, most people who board at Sengkang MRT during PM peak will usually alight at these stops that I mentioned above on svc 80/87.

I agree that 156 should move. 159 also. Both stop outside Compass1, so people have option to either walk to Compassvale Interchange or take it from Sengkang East Ave. I would also recommend 372 but more unlikely since it is a feeder. All other services should stay in current Sengkang Interchange.

Hi mr busanalyser, yes. There are also many others (living at 2nd stop area) who rushed to 85 or 83 just now which pumped up the loading figure. Most alighted at the 3rd stop along Punggol central. Some alighted at 4th stop. Of course, there are many who alighted at 2nd stop. These people could also board 136 or 386 but of course they will board 3/83/85 as well if the bus comes for obvious reasons. 136 frequency is no good at 7pm++ and 386 already witnesses long queues because it is only bus to edgefield/edgedale plains end. Cheers. Thanks.

They need to adjust frequency of svc 83 post 7pm. It can be around 10-12 mins from 5-7pm and they should maintain this frequency until 8pm, given that all services lose their frequency post 7pm (end of some shifts).

dupdup77 SG

Hi mr busanalyser, I think no need to adjust frequency of 83. All they need to do now is maintain the exact frequency of 3/83/85/136/386. If there is no slip up, it should still work out fine. Passengers can choose any of these except for the last 2 stops along Punggol central to rely on 3/83/85. Cheers. Thanks.

Can decrease other svc freq past 7 pm except sv 83. Sv 83 acts like feeder and has majority DDs.

Svc 83 Weekdays would be ideal with 6AM-7PM / 2 S1

with 6 DDs and 2 SDs,The extra PM duty adequate with SD for supplement jam.

Weekends 7AM-PM / 2 TQ

with fleet of 5 DD and 4 SD..

The HCI extension from what I see those svc the BC when turning right don't really keep in lane one so (I saw one using left turn lane to turn right)

All, in the hillion mall facebook, they replied that the Bukit panjang interchange will open in 2nd half of yr 2017. This means hillion mall will open first on 24 feb 2017. Cheers. Thanks.

dupdup77 SG

Wrong topic

Hi mr iveco, why wrong topic? I thought Bukit panjang interchange is still considered a bus interchange? Cheers. Thanks.

He edited his post, so there was something out-of-topic he accidentally posted here before that.

Tuas got space for at least 50 bus parking. Was in the area the other day so drove down to Tuas bus terminal. There were 6 DDs parked there and had lots of space. What I counted was at least space to park 50 buses.

Sbs6750E SG

I think the others are for Malaysia buses.

carbikebus SG

LTA very funny,Tuas with so much space is called Terminal and YCK/HBF with lesser space is called Interchange..đI would only call it Interchange if there is a feeder svc at least.

@Carbikebus, I need your help. Can you use your connection with Changi Airport staff, to help save people('s lives)? I have one Uncle working at Changi Airport. Just saw him today during Chinese New Year reunion. Was shocked to see him in white hair and broken teeth. It's really sad to see him like that. Then when we asked him what happened, he say he purposely hurt himself, just to get some kind of medical leave or benefit. What kind of stupid mentality is this? I believe there is some kind of "influence" among the Changi Airport staff, to purposely self-harm themselves. Please use your connection with Changi Airport, to raise this to the management. Ask them to review the working conditions and happiness of their workers. It's really sad to see my Uncle like that.
